Gong ride last 15k
Now I heard a rumour that the last part of the ride this year will be on the road and not on that shocker of a bike path.
Does anyone know if there's any truth in that rumour??

Re: Gong ride last 15k
Have not heard. But I read that the finish line has been moved a tiny bit up the road to a park.
In any case, the weather (rain) would be a concern for this year's planned ride.

Re: Gong ride last 15k
I guess it'll be the steel commuter again.

Re: Gong ride last 15k
Yeh its off the bike path this year. Plenty of rain it looks like, which usually means more punctures.

Re: Gong ride last 15k
With 40 degrees, I know I won't ride. With rain, it's decision all the way to the start and even along the way. Then there's the rain gear.

Re: Gong ride last 15k
I've got the added dilemma that in a team of 5, I'm the only one who is fairly keen to sit it out if it rains. The others want to run regardless. And I'm the team captain!
What can you do! I'm hoping it's either dry all the way, or hailing and lightning in the morning, so the choice is easier  |
